All good things come to an
end and so did NTS for
Cohort 16, which has been
a fantastic journey of
learning and excellent
exposure through eminent
resource persons. Thanks
to LEAD India I was
blessed to meet and
befriend some gem of
people whose devotion for
work and knowledge kept
me in the state of awe.
On 20th March 2015 the sessions concluded with the formal
Graduation Ceremony, which felicitated the participants and
welcomed them in the network of LEAD Fellows. The graduation
ceremony was followed by the Annual General Meeting of LEAD
India. Cohort 16 presented their lessons learnt from the learning
journey and concrete suggestions on how would they continue
engaging with LEAD India. The AGM has appointed two fellows from
Cohort 16 to develop a draft Fellows charter for LEAD India.
Now begins an exciting
new journey as Fellow of
prestigious LEAD network
which I am looking
f
forward
d to.
